Girl Scouts of Gateway Council Celebrating Cookie Entrepreneurs During National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend

February 23rd, 2018 · Leave a Comment


This weekend is National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend — and Girl Scouts of Gateway Council are joining other Girl Scout councils across the United States to celebrate.

One hundred percent of the net revenue girls raise through cookie sales funds local Girl Scout council and troop programs and community projects, so customers who purchase cookies are making an important investment in their community and supporting fun and formative leadership experiences for girls.

During Girl Scout Cookie season, each amazing young G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader) not only sells delicious cookies but also builds life skills, such as goal setting, people skills, and business ethics—all essential to 21st century leadership. The more cookies girls sell, the more earnings they have to power impactful community projects and personal enrichment experiences, like camping and traveling. Girls set goals to decide how they want to invest the funds they earn from their sales.

National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend offers enterprising girls a chance to show off their cookie-selling skills by participating in booth, door-to-door, and digital sales. To find Girl Scouts selling cookies near you, visit www.girlscoutcookies.org or use the official Girl Scout Cookie Finder app, free on iOS and Android devices.
